Three Days at Sea

We have been cruising the Bay of Bengal and the Indian Ocean. The seas have been calm and the weather has been partly sunny, not as hot but still muggy. In fact, I even sat out at the pool and had a wonderful nap. The chaise lounge was so comfortable and there was a gentle breeze blowing across the pool deck….

The bridge lectures and games have been well attended considering how few passengers are on board. When we get to Dubai, we will pick up the full complement of passengers so we expect to have more than the four tables we are now getting. I have only had to play once, and I am very proud that I did not come in last! Everyone loves Michael and they tell me how much they have learned from him.

I have started a knitting group and unfortunately, only one other person showed up. Just as well as I cannot knit lace and visit at the same time. The lecturers on board have been outstanding. I also took a watercolor class; I got to play around with the stuff and realized what fun it was. Maybe when I get home, I’ll get my stuff out and seriously try it again.

The staff is very friendly and the food is outstanding (and way toooooo much). Michael is going to escort a tour in Cochin and I got one for Mumbai. So much for the rough life at sea 
